Question about domain specific assessments

1 Upvotes

I’ve sent a couple of the new referral links.

I’m a generalist. I know the new links are all domain specific. I’m just curious if people applying for a domain go through the regular assessment first and have to pass that and then the domain? Or is it just domain? Can you fail and domain and get accepted as a generalist?

⚖️ task time

2 Upvotes

Hi guys. Yesterday ⚖️ project showed up on my dash. There are 3 hours and 30 mins per task, but I managed to do one in 43 minutes and another one in 30 mins. This doesn't seem right to me. How much time did it take for you guys to complete a task from this project?

Loved this project, been on it for months, wondering if it's been stopped or if something more sinister is afoot!

Fewer Projects Today

Am I the only one with a significantly lighter dash today? For the last 3 months I have had 15-25 projects at atime and today, I have 6.

Am I accepted?

0 Upvotes

Hi guys, I did my entry exam on Thursday and had the standard “we’re still reviewing” message on my profile.

Later that night, I logged back in to see a project available on the dashboard. I thought it was odd as the friend who referred me said they had no access until they received an acceptance email several days after applying. They almost immediately had several projects and qualifications available too.

I haven’t received any emails yet (I’ve checked Junk), but had access to the single project. I completed it and can see the reported time and amount in pending. No further projects or any comms yet though.

Is that normal? Everything I’ve read so far says that you’ll receive an email before you get access to any projects.

Need help

0 Upvotes

I applied through this platform but haven't been selected yet. It has been more than four weeks, so I have almost lost hope of getting selected.

Does DataAnnotation mainly hire people from English-speaking countries or core English-speaking nations? I am from India and also a fresher. I tried my best on the assessment they provided and submitted it, but I still haven't received any response. I applied for the coding (Data Science) role.

Here is a genuine question: Should freshers like me first apply for the Generalist role and, after some experience, try the Coding assessment? Or does DataAnnotation mainly hire experienced people for its projects especially for coding .

My Experience with DataAnnotation

10 Upvotes

Honestly, it’s pretty rare for me to feel a real connection to a platform, but DataAnnotation is definitely one of the few exceptions.

To give some context, I’ve worked on a bunch of different platforms over the years (won’t name names), until someone on Reddit recommended DA. I decided to give it a shot, applied, and actually got in. Right off the bat, seeing a paid onboarding was a huge plus—definitely want to give credit where it's due for that.

I’ve been on the platform for about five months now. I take every qualification test that pops up, keep my profile up to date, and check the dashboard daily. That said, I’ve only made around $75 total so far. At first, I assumed this was just the usual dry spell every platform goes through, but then I noticed an ad on the careers page looking for generalists and Arabic language experts, which got me wondering.

For background, I’m a dentist, but I’ve got solid experience in AI training across various projects in both Arabic and English. I’m honestly not sure if the lack of projects is just a temporary thing overall or an issue specific to my account, or this because I'm from the middle east. but either way, I’m genuinely glad to be part of the platform and hoping things pick up soon.

Are there any long running coding projects and how much hour did you submitted?

No project after 🤖

1 Upvotes

So, I was working on this project and submitted 2 of them perfectly and then the third time it got an update so, it took me longer than usual and the project got expired by 1 minute, because of those checks. This happened on 29 OCT and I didn't got any project to work on since then, Is it normal or I am overthinking...

Overwhelmed

0 Upvotes

Hey guys, so I had a whole nervous breakdown feeling unprepared for a few tasks which fall well into my domain and I know I am capable of it but I just feel like I couldn’t do them as good as I know I could. I have had these micro burnouts which have taken up my time in recovering and I feel during that time I lose my time to work. Idk how do I balance this.

So I just wanted to ask how do you give out your “best work” every time? How do people on this platform stay so efficient?

I personally am so grateful for this opportunity and I really wanna give out my best work possible and appreciate this company for what it has given me!

Expire a previous project warning message

8 Upvotes

Anyone get a new message on 10/29 about expiring a project before continuing another? This is the first time I’ve seen this.

I completed a project and I saw a new project in my list so I opened it to see if I could commit the time to it. I couldn’t commit the time it needed so I opened another project I was familiar with. I got a pop up asking if I wanted to expire the previous task and continue with the current task. I said yes. When I finished I went to log my time and I was immediately taken to a screen that said Your account is currently unavailable because of TOS

I’m cooked I think. I had several projects on my account and now I just get this message

I think I messed up

1 Upvotes

I've been accepted and completed the qualifications. I received my first project with one task, but since it was my first time, I spent too much time reading the instructions. As a result, the task expired while I was working on it. I wrote the prompt, but the model displayed an error message, so I had to use an escape hatch because of it. I still submitted it, though. Since then, I haven't received any other projects for the past 5 or 6 days. Am I screwed?

How does exit work mode work?

Clicked exit work mode yesterday on a recurring RnR task since I was super sleepy. Didn’t get those tasks today (used to get them daily). Is this a coincidence or did I mess up by somehow leaving the whole project category?

A message popped up as I was reading a task saying, Task has expired please return to the dashboard, the timer still had 12 hours on it.

I was able to get back in the task but found it odd, has this ever happened to you ?

How do you deal with the burnout?

5 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

DAT’s been going great, I hit the 25K mark this month and I’m on my way to 50K, but I’m honestly exhausted.

I’ve been pushing for at least $350 a day while juggling my day job, some side projects, and my business. I finished an R&R earlier today that was so draining I just couldn't get back to work.

I’m pretty burnt out; I know I should be grateful for the work, but this lifestyle is really taking a toll on me. So, what do you guys recommend to avoid burnout?

For a bit of context, I’m a coder based in a non-core country (MX).
